Almost n Homicide

SAN Francisco, April lS.-Among
the passengers ON the Central Pacific
overland yesterday morning, bound for
this city, was Sol Frankel, member OF
the Virginia City stock brokers firm,
which failed last November for over q
million dollars. Another passenger on
the train was John Quinn, who also lost
heavily by Frankel's failure. Sowe two
or three hours before the train reached
Oakland Quinn visited Frankel's car and
demanded q settlement. Upon Frankel
declaring that he had no money, Quinn
drew revolver and was about to lire,
when gentleman sitting near sprang
across the car and wrenched the weapon
from him. Frankel will probably swear
out warrant for Quinn's arrest.

A Steamer wrecked.

LONDON, April ls.-Later dispatches
confirm the report that steamer has
been wrecked off Bonifacio, Corsica.
The name of the vessel is LAMA. Help
has been sent to the wreck bnt the sea

near her for some time.
The steamer ashore off Boniface is the

south of Corsica. All the women and

Simpson Acquitted.

The cases of the people against G B.
Simpson, charged with obtaining money
by false pretences result cd yesterday in
an acquittal Of the defendant. These
cases were interesting from the fact that
it was alleged that some Sl700 was OBJ.
tanned from man named Sherman by
means of an imitation gold brick. The
story of how the victim was induced to
visit The river and interview masked
man named Monte Pete, who carried
the brick about with him in gunny
sack, is still fresh in the memory of the
public and the trial before Judge Cheney
brought out no new facts. The jury
were convinced that the right man had
not been caught, and found simpson not
guilty. Thus ends the 'gold brick"
sensation.

Deliveries of native wheat are restricted.
The remainder of the crop on hand is

hardening. The sales of English wheat
during the week were 36, 967 quarters at

NATIONAL OPERA COMPANY.
1t Meets with Grand success n
san Francisco.

|
SAN FRANCIsco, April lS.-The Ma
tional Opera Company arrived this after
noon. The arrival was quite an event,
the organization being the largest and
most important in it's character that
ever visited the Pacific coast. The
company made its first appearance be-
fore q San Francisco audience at the
Grand Opera House tonight. The
audience was one of the largest and
most fashionable that ever attended
grand opera representation here. Faust
was the opera. The Mise en- scene, TO-
gether with tie orchestral renderlngs,
were revelations to opera goers. Miss
Juch, who, as Marguerite, lad only
been on the stage few minutes Mt the
time of this writing. was received with
every mark of sympathy and encour-
agement. judging from the house to-
night and the enthusiasm manifested,
there is every reason to believe that the
people of this city will evince their ap.
probation of what, in its ensemble,
promises to be the finest operatic repre-.
sentation ever produced here. Emma
Juch, as Marguerite, met with cor
dial reception, and at the end of the
first act was called before the curtain
several times. William Ludwig, who is
one of the finest baritones ever heard
here, was accepted as the best "Me
phisto" ever heard on the operate
stage. Jessie Bartlett Davis made de-
cided success es "Sichel." Charles Bas-
sett, a young American tenor. has
voice of beautiful quality. and made an
excellent impression. Theodore Thomas
directed in mastery style. Altogether,
it was incomparably the finest perform.
ance of grand opera ever given here.

THE INTERSTATE.
Questions Being Asked of
the Commission.
VERY AMBIGUOUS ANSWERS
The Commission Will Not Act
Without Formal Complaints
Being Made.

Associated Press Dispatches to the HERALD.
WASHINGTON, April lS.-The Inter-
state Commerce Commission to-day rem
dered decision which is considered the
most important action yet taken by the
commission. The decision is rendered
on two petitions, that of the Order Of
Railway Conductors and of the Traders
and Travellers Union. which are of the
kind that render the decision especially
interesting. on account of their being
representatives of very large number
of applications made to the commission.
The latter petition deals with the man.
ner in which the former system of allow
ing additional free baggage has been
interfered with by the Interstate bill.
The petition of the railway conductors
asks for information as to the proper
Interpretation of the law as apply
ing to the issuing of passes to rail say
employees and their families. and to those
who make railway service their business
while temporarily out of employment,
and in search of situations, and II trans
portation at reduced rates is provided
for the representatives of any one asso-
citation must the same be extended all
others, which are composed exclusively
of railway employees. In reply the Com
mission says: ga careful reading of the
act to regulate the commercs uDd
which che commission was organized
lei, he, al -
have made similar application, that
no Jurisdiction has been given
US to answer questions like these under
consideration. Ii the railway company
should issue passes to conductor and
his family to attend the proAching
convention, or should tran sport 300
pounds of baggage free for commercial
traveller under the registry and in.
demnity system, and some person feel
ing aggrieved should make complaint of
unjust discrimination, it would then be
proper for the Commission to
entertain the question of whether
a conductor was, or was not
committing a violation of the law. and
if so, whether he was or was not within
the exceptions, as stated within Section
%. Complaints may also bs presented
if charges made by the Carriers are not
considered reasonable and just" Refer
ring to the complaint that fines for the
violation of the law, whether intentional
or not, are exorbitant the Commission
says: ''Good faith exhibited in an hon
est effort to carry out the requirements
of the law will involve officials in NO
danger of damage or fines"
The express companies having raised
the question as to whether they were sub
ject to the operations of the law, the
Commission made ruling that it would
hold in the affirmative, but would give
a hearing to any company wishing to
contest the points. The Canadian Ex-
press Company, in response to whose
inquiry this ruling was made, has not
notified the Commission that it is carry
ing out the provisions of the Interstate
Commerce law, and forwards copy of
its general tariff from offices in the
United States.

Fruit Buyers arc Afraid of Pre-
vailing Rates.

SAN Francisco, April lS.-The But
letin's New York special. says: The
agents of the California fruit growers
are at present endeavoring to obtain
orders for canned fruits that will be
packed during the coming month. Buy.
ers are solicited to purchase upon free
on board basis, but all are reluctant to
consider this prop osition, being uncel
tain as to what the lay down cost is
to be when freight rates are added.
Few orders have been taken and these
have been narrowed down to small
quantities, sufficient only to make q
show in stock when the goods are avail
able. The interest in future sales has
in a great measure subsidized. The pur-
chasers, f. o. b., on the Pacific coast are
at loss to know what the cost laid
down will be, though they appear tc
feel confident that the rate cannot in
Justice be sustained.

AID last Friday contained story of the
casting up on the seashore at San Onifre
creek, about fifteen miles below Santa
Ana, of vast quantity of seaweed, dead
whales. sharks, turtles and other mon
sters of the deep. From man who has
Just come from the reputed scene of this
submarine disturbance it is learned that
the whole story was started by gang of
railroad surveyors camped near there.
who, out of pure fun, magnified the cast
ing up of shark and q turtle into the
tremendous yarn so readily swallowed
by an easily gulled reporter. There had
been strong south wind the night be-
fore and this had driven upon shore an
unusual amount of kelp, in which the
marine denizens were entangled.

WASHINGTON, April lS.-This was the
day selected by the colored citizens of
Washington for the celebration of the
txenty.fifth anniversary of the abolition

and urged that that the negro race
should not divide its vote to its own

Strike On the Galveston, II OustOn

Ell PAso, Tex, April lS.-The brake
men, switchmen, and employees of the
Galveston, Houston and San Antonio
Railroad all went out on strike to-day,
which extended all the way to Del Rio.
The strike is ON account of an order OF
the Railroad Company holding back the
salaries of men, who, through careless
ness, or disobedience, ilfict damage
upon the company's property. As the
road is already blocked with freight, and
men are not to be had in sufficient
numbers 10 handle it, the order was
rescinded, and the men went back TO
work.
